News Mueller Day - Thursday 4.18.19

[[DHT]Osiris]

They should start an impeachment process for one of the charges in the Mueller report. When that dies in the Senate, note that everyone that voted no is saying it is okay for a Republican or Democratic President to do "x". Then immediately start the process again for the next charge. Continue doing so until they run out of charges. Start with the least objectionable and work their way up to the most objectionable if possible. If they manage to exhaust the list before 2020 (doubtful) then start again with various combinations of the charges.

I like this idea, it establishes how low the bar is for each Republican senator, and gives each of them a chance to save face if they choose country over party for once.

I noticed you omitted the word "duty," I wonder why that is.

Does this word have some special significance which means “do the opposite of what precedes”? If AOC and the Dems intend to pass the Green New Deal then how is that changed by adding the word “duty”?

Do you want to pass this specific Green New Deal?

vs.

Is it your duty to pass a Green New Deal (whatever that Green New Deal may be)?

Seems like a totally different question to me. I don't know though, and maybe someone can clarify for me if this is just normal Congress language for any bill.

Do you think Joe Schmuck would receive the same treatment? Any discussion now over whether he obstructed or not is just as dumb as the arguments Mueller put forth about the Trump Tower meeting. We knew he obstructed over a year ago, and he's done it incessantly (along with witness tampering) ever since.

Joe Schmuck doesn't have the protection of not being able to be prosecuted until he's fired from his job.

To be honest, I think Mueller pussied out on obstruction. I just don't think he wanted to be the one to recommend indictment of a current POTUS. He did a good job marshalling the facts and evidence, but then just said, here it is, bye now.

Should have never gotten rid of the Independent Counsel. It's apparent the powers of the Special Prosecutor is an exercise in futility.

And bigly presidential here....

The best part of this is he never finished. He left and went golfing.

Edit: oops @MomentsofSanity beat me to it. 🙂

Not necessarily. While I'd have preferred a recommendation to prosecute from Mueller, it wasn't his most important function. His most important function was to supply the evidence, which he did. It's not like Trump can't be prosecuted based on that evidence.

That said, I personally think we should amend the Constitution to make DoJ independent of the executive branch, with AG being separately elected. Then we wouldn't need an independent counsel or a special counsel.

Yes, it seems like a punt that he didn't have to make, especially considering he was tasked with making that determination.

If I'm reading it right and Mueller does think Trump committed acts that would constitute obstruction of justice for a regular person then he should have said so and the idea that Trump would not be able to defend himself against such an accusation is kind of ridiculous.

That sounds like an excellent idea.

oops wrong thread.

I would agree. The DOJ may be needed to police the president. Its a real separation of powers issue.

This whole routine about how Mueller should have indicted Trump is specious. As I pointed out, that was never in his mandate, a mandate that exists within the framework of DoJ policy dating back to Nixon, at least. It never was part of the deal no matter how much you want it to be. It's important to realize that Mueller did everything but that. He made it perfectly clear that Trump would be under indictment were he not President.

Barr & team Trump are now trying to obfuscate that truth into oblivion. The issue is & always has been impeachment. They were messing with your minds from the beginning-

So if there's no collusion and no obstruction where will you TDS suffering fucktards move the goalposts next?

 

[kage69]

I think maybe it's that Rim Job here just can't count to ten. Which actually isn't at all surprising.

Have you been paying attention at all?

God damn you are one shitty American. I hope you're this dense around women, we don't need any more future glory hole workers supporting this kind of fascist crap.

As long as your old lady is doing the work of ten there wont be a need for any more glory hole workers.

She really is quite special.

Remember when Bill Clinton got on the same plane as the AG during “BUT HER EMAILS!” and guys like you went FUCKING NUTS?

 

[cytg111]

Barr claims the Muller report said there was no evidence of collusion with Russia. So either Barr lied, or Bobs team dropped the ball, assuming what you're claiming is correct.

The redacted version is public, you could read it.

There seems to be a great deal of obstruction. Did you even bother to read the report?

Looks like the special counsel sees around six felonies. What do you think we should do about those?

Lol. Not the smartest.

Why would they ever read anything that crushes their world view when they can just stay in denial? Flat earthers gotta flat Earth, MAGAtards gotta MAGA.

Hey old man ranting about the damn kids, what do you feel about the felonies Mueller pretty clearly says Trump committed?

Just want to know your feelings on felonies. 🙂

I think we can all agree what little intelligence you once had has disappeared along with your hearing.
